Cereal Crop | Yield Potential with Cereal Crop Solutions

Across Australia’s grain regions, our products and technical advisors are helping cereal growers solve problems.

Syngenta is a world leader in cereal crop protection. That’s the outcome of over $1 billion invested in R&D, year after year. This supports a team of 5,000 chemists, biochemists, biologists, geneticists, and crop specialists. Many of them focused on cereals.

Their breakthroughs and molecules can help you solve problems and improve yields. In Australia, our cereal solutions have been optimised through 20 years of in-country testing. That, and talking daily with growers and agronomists across the main grain regions.

The result is a toolbox of fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, seed treatments and growth regulators tailored to Australia’s unique needs. With a working knowledge of our tools, you can get more control over the diseases, weeds and insects that affect your land. And deal with problems like lodging.

Cereal Herbicides

We’ve worked with local cereal growers for over 20 years to refine our range of herbicides. They’ve been tested and proven across Australian growing regions. And we’re always searching for new solutions to add to the mix. Our herbicide toolbox gives you a variety of ways to control most weeds at each stage of growth. Combine them to develop a weed control strategy that works for your business and your land.

Cereal Insecticides, plant growth regulators and adjuvants

Deciding on your insect control threshold is important. There’s no point in spraying unnecessarily. However, if pest numbers exceed your economic threshold, we have a range of broad-spectrum and pest-specific treatments to consider. Similarly, lodging in cereals can also dramatically reduce yields. Use of our plant growth regulators means you’ll lose less grain, and your cereals will be easier and faster to harvest.
